Chapter 1: Kuki's Busy Day

Beatles Household

"Jonathan, put a hold on the coffee, I won't be able to have it until 3. Jeremy, are those forms ready, yet? No, Donavan, we decided against that brand of strings, you know those never hold good." Kuki Beatles had one phone pressed to her shoulder and two more in her left hand, while her right hand pulled a briefcase, the businesswoman bypassing Joey Beatles, who was playing with blocks in the hall.

This was a daily thing in the life of Kuki Sanban-Beatles. She wasn't the happy, cheerful girl everyone remembered from 20 years ago. In her early 20s, she got a job working for the Rainbow Monkey Corporation, which had long since lost its original president. Her love and new ideas for Rainbow Monkeys had earned her the title of President itself. Since then, she wasn't the same. The happiness and freedom that once made her soul had been abandoned. The strict, humorless aura of a businesswoman overcame her. After all, someone of an important position and power doesn't have time for games when there's so much work to be done. …She had a lot of her mother in her.

"And Jon, I hope you did something about that Noid." Kuki told her assistant sternly. "I dunno WHERE that thing came from, I dun' care, just get rid of it."

Her husband, Wally walked by her as she entered the living room, and said quickly, "Hope ya have a great day, Ho-"

"Yes, thanks, Wally, hold my dinner, I won't be home 'til 8." She walked by without giving him a chance to kiss her. "Yes, thanks, Jer, see you at-" Kuki stopped when her 10-year-old daughter, Kirie Beatles, ran and blocked her way to the door. "Siiiigh. I have to go, guys, something just came up." She hung up and asked in a dull tone, "What is it, Kirie?"

Kirie began to make signs with her sleeved hands, saying, Mom! Mom! Can we play with the new Rainbow Monkey I got for Christmas? ? I've been waiting to play with you for like, ever! Well, actually it's been 11 days since Christmas, but who's counting!

"Kirie, Dear, I don't have time to play, we sold a lot of Rainbow Monkeys on Christmas, we need lots of time to restock, so play with Joey, 'kay? Later." And she walked out the front door without another word.

Kirie frowned in sadness as she trudged down, sitting on the floor beside her 5-year-old brother. "Let's make another fort, Sis!" The younger child said happily. Kirie began to drearily stack blocks together, still upset about her mother.

Downtown Cleveland

"NEW SHOOOES! Hello? NEW SHOES! Come on, fellas, this is a once in a lifetime deal. You don't get decent footwear this often! New shoooees for only $29.95! Sound good? NEW SHOES!" Things were not so successful for Mr. Sebastian Mogul and his assistant, Simon. Once the President of the Rainbow Monkey Corporation, he was stripped of his title during his 20-year period of being frozen in liquid nitrogen. And Rule #83 of the Corporation Handbook reads that a president can easily lose their title if they spend too long frozen in liquid nitrogen. Just like Walt Disney. Now the two former businessmen were reduced to selling shoes on the street. "Come on, Simon! You're not waving that sign enough."

"Uh, yessir." The assistant waved a wooden sign that read 'New Shoes' in thin, light-green marker.

"NEW SHOOOES!" As Mr. Mogul shouted again, a chubby man in a brown trenchcoat approached him.

"Where'd you get these shoes?" he asked suspiciously.

"Nnnn, that's none of your business, do you want these shoes or not?" Mogul glared.

"Yeah. I don't think you got 'em legally. 'fraid I'm gonna hafta confiscate him."

"Ho ho! What are you? The Shoe Police?"

The man smirked coolly and reached under his coat, pulling out a badge. "Yeah."

SHOE POLIIIIIICE!

Seconds later, all the 'New Shoes' were taken and stuffed into the man's car. "See ya down the road." With that, he drove away.

"Uuuugh. This is no good, Simon. We haven't made any money since we entered this shoe business."

"Um, but we're not officially a business, we got those from-"

"Silence, Simon!" he bonked Simon's head. "I haven't eaten anything decent since that dumpster sandwich. We need a way to make MONEY! There must be something we could do."

Right away, a white convertible-limo came and parked beside the villains. Mad Mod was driving it, and Mumbo Jumbo, Killer Moth, Johnny Rancid, and Master of Games were with him. "'ey! Don't you blokes wanna come to Brotherhood Base? We got enough free food to last ya 'til yer 90. And by free, we mean stolen." Mod smirked.

"Away with yooou! Weee don't need pity from commoners." Mogul stated.

"Aaaaah, your loss. Orright, boys, le's get back, round up the poker table, 'oever loses hauls the load in our next steal."

"YAAAAAAH!" With that, they drove off.

"Hoo-oo-oo-oo!" Mogul shuddered with anger. "If I hadn't been frozen, I'd still be buhmillionaire! But thanks to those lousy Kids Next Door, my precious corporation was robbed right from under me! Ooooh, if I ever found out who's responsible…" his fist trembled.

"Oh, it was that Sanban girl, Sir!" Simon responded.

"Say what? ?"

"Just look in the paper." He held up a newspaper, showing Kuki Beatles' serious image.

Mogul snatched it and stared closely. "'The Rainbow Monkey Corporation, biggest breakthrough in 20 years. All thanks to the leadership of Kuki Jin Sanban. OOOOHH! !" He shook the paper, becoming more angry. "I knew that girl was no good! I could've forgiven the fact she ruined my plans to-" he whispered something in Simon's ear, "-those Rainbow Monkeys. But after stealing my corporation, my pride and joy, and not to mention my number one money-making business!" A spiteful look burned in his squinted eyes. "I must take my revenge on young Ms. Sanban right now. Simon! Hand me by eyewash!"

"Uhh, y-yessir."

Unknown Location

A white-furred ape sat on his floating chair in a dark room, his uncovered red eye staring at the screen before him. His henchman, a green-skinned ape in a purple cape and taller, dome helmet, spoke as he presented images of the Rainbow Monkey Factory, and happy children playing with Rainbow Monkeys. "As you can see: analysis of this human-owned factory suggests they sow stuffed, colored monkeys, with rainbow heads, which are then distributed to little human children, who in turn play with these stuffed monkeys, therefore triggering the adult humans to produce MORE of these toys, to sell more to kids, which will cause the adults to make MORE, which will make the kids BUY more, which will further ensure production of-"

"Okay, I get it." The white ape, Specter, cut him off. "Once again, you've made your point most redundantly, Mojo." He spoke with a toneless voice. "Still, you are right. Children already seem to adore and worship these monkeys." Specter smirked. "Perhaps they are the key in bringing down Adams Tech Co., and furthermore, conquering the world. Our first priority would be to locate someone with intel on this company."

Their monitor showed the front of the factory as Mr. Mogul and Simon approached with cartons of eggs. "Hmmm… they should help."

Specter kept his smirk as the former businessmen began chucking eggs at the building.

Sooo here is a story that was planned for a while. Numbuh 227 thought of the acronym, by the way. There's Specter, from Ape Escape, another member of Team Gnik, I'll let you guess who those other guys were. This story's about Kirie Beatles, as you can see, whom hasn't had much stardom in this series. :P Nor has Numbuh 3. While this story is about them, it'll have a few other things, too. And I think I actually hinted who Specter's enemy will be in Legend of the Seven Lights. ;) Can you guess? Not Kirie, obviously. Anyhoo, see you for more.
